That is sooooo cool rhat Foresty's viewers wanted to gift him and Rocco firewood. We must thank Foresty for all of his stellar videography, viewing pleasure and honesty he brings to us any way we can.
The greatness of the content is it's simplicity and lack of pretense. A boy, a van, a woodstove, good food and his dog (the star of the show). It never gets old.
Dude, I’m an OG viewer and your content has always been amazing. But I have to say these last few winter seasons, as you transition into Telemark/Ski Touring, have been absolutely phenomenal. I’ve enjoyed watching the growth of your content, your videography and editing. Keep up the amazing work. Gratitude from Manitoba.
I've recently stopped watching some vanlife channels as their content has really tanked. But not this one! Forestry always delivers and this was another fantastic video.😊
There's only so many times you can watch a Sell-out ham act their way through yet another paid-to-praise Booetti , surpfshark, chinese e-bike, Nolight advert.
Because Foresty content is not really about Van Life it’s an adventure, hiking, biking, cooking, camping & travel channel. You have to watch his bike tour videos, they are also exceptional. That’s why the others are boring, they just drive around and cook. The only other channel that is similar to his is Adventure Time Loui.
Foresty, my friend. I love your great adventures! Rocco too! Get yourself some steak and eggs on me. You're wasting away again and we want you Healthy! Keep your health up! ❤
@@forestyforest De nada! But seriously, bro, with the lifestyle you're living, it probably wouldn't hurt to get some help on the food and nutrition front. I can't imagine how many calories you're burning a day! 😆 Give it a thought!
I can’t believe that I was a ski instructor and you bringing us that beautiful heavenly video is heartbreaking. I am now in a wheelchair and due to my condition won’t be able to ski again. Please keep safe and thanks so incredibly much for your videos. This also goes to everyone! Please be safe this holiday season.
I know nothing can fully help, but when I was 19, my rowing instructor was a younger 40s para trouper. He was injured in a jump. Paralyzed legs. Wheelchair-bound. I'm so grateful he and his wife Sara got up at 4:30am every morning all Fall and Spring semester just to teach us club rowers about fitness, mobility, rowing techniques. It was one of my best experiences. I hope you're able to coach or share your knowledge about skiing and snow sports.
@@jamesfrommanitoba.1992there are also adaptive sports organizations that might be able to help you get back on the slopes depending on your limitations 🙏
Been watching you for a couple of years now. Almost never comment on videos. Yours deserve a comment and much more. You put out some really quality stuff young man.
I came across your channel a couple of weeks ago, watched two videos, and immediately subscribed. Now, after watching many more, I can confidently say you’re one of my all-time favorite TH-cam channels. You and Rocko are such a joy to watch! I really appreciate that you never ask to like an subscribe or promote products-it’s so refreshing. Keep up the amazing work; I’m excited for more content. Cheers!
Watch his old bike touring videos. The best suffer porn on the internet, and a great soundtrack too. I wish forest could play what he was listening to, like the old days. But... demonetization is a bitch...
The view from the summit - spectacular. Hearing you describe how a simple thing like new skis and boots make you happy - heartwarming. Watching Rocko run beside you as you ski downhill - priceless. 💙
Beautiful, Foresty. The generosity of humans, the splendor of nature, the solitude above it all. Thank you for continuing to produce excellent content.
Sandwich looked beyond delicious. Your culinary skills keep impressing me. The fact that you have mastered your limited space and can still crank out great food is to be commended.
What a perfect treat - a friday the 13th vid from Foresty Forest and his intrepid sidekick Rocko. As a viewer I can hardly believe I get to see what you've filmed, and that places so beautiful actually exist. Thanks!
This is it. Over the last few months, I've watched every single video on this channel. Sorry, this is gonna be a longer comment, but I have to... I don't remember which video YT recommended to me first, but I was instantly hooked. I started watching your videos in reverse order, going back... suddenly, there was no Rocko, no wood-burning stove, no front bumper with winch, no Ninja Foodi, the van looked emptier with every video... And then, I got to the point of the last video in the minivan. So I jumped all the way back to the 2014 bicycle touring videos and started watching... Every single video. Bicycle touring. Minivan build and stealth living. Up to now. There are no words that could describe how I feel having found this channel and following your journey and adventures. In many videos, I see myself, my life, my journey... So long story short, if I could watch only one channel for the rest of my life, this is it. Thank you, Foresty Forest. For everything. The absolute magic you capture on video. The stories you tell. The life you live, which some of us can relate to, and many of us wish we had. Thank you.
Four hour climb up the mountain - wow! And then 45 minute ski down. That's a day's work/fun. Rocko was so cute running down the mountain ahead of you. Enjoyed the video. Beautiful shot when you were above the clouds.
Someone said to me last week that the world is f#@ked. I said no it’s not. Some people are not nice and do awful things, but the world is is next level beautiful- and your video supports that 100% Thank you so much for what you do. And big love to Rocco 💜
Back Country skiing is so much more difficult than resort skiing, but you make it look easy, and fun. Thanks for getting a bunch of us excited about skiing this winter! And another great video is in the books.
You never cease to amaze me with your awesome beautiful videos. The breakfast sandwich and burger were awesome too. You motivated me to get after it. The burger and sandwich that is. Too old to ski 😂
The view from the mountain of the cloud cover was mesmerizing. And your choice of music, haunting. Rocko ran down that trail like she was a sled dog! Another award-worthy video.
"so so beautiful..." and I am so so grateful that you capture these moments on video! Places I may never see, except in your travel vlogs. Thank you once again!
Foresty, I have seen some incredible sights on your channel the past how many years....but these views were BREATH TAKING....amazing work buddy. Keep having fun & stay safe. ❤🙏
That you for sharing this spectacular view & the experience. It is beyond magnificent. Foresty, you make this the best channel. So happy to spend my time with your Friday with Foresty…as one of your viewers just said today.❤
As I sit here in an overcrowded Eustis Florida to know that this exists in your eyes have seen something so absolutely beautiful warms my heart thank you so much for us for bringing me and everyone this video it is absolutely astonishing
A Foresty Forest video is always a great way to start my weekend. Love it! Beautiful scenery, Beautiful Rocko, and great guy Foresty Forest - what's not to like?
It's wonderful to see you out there with Rocko. I take my dog everywhere that I can even if it is not an exciting trip. Everyone's mental health is important and the wilderness is a healer.
This was just beautiful! Sometimes we get to find ourselves in places that leave us in utter awe. The world outside man-made environments is just something else ❤ You definitely are doing "vanlife" right. Love your content.
I've never seen content quite like this. It's just stunning. It's like being transported to an alternate universe of complete beauty. Love, love, love the pup. Best ever personality😊
Thank you as always Simon for some top notch entertainment. Imo there is nothing better than when a creator gets rejuvenated and their enthusiasm is renewed. Your grinning more in this video than you have in some time, stay safe.
Incredible videos, unbelievable beauty. I am just amazed at the quality of your videos and appreciative of your sharing them. Thanks so much. Take care
I don't know if you read your comments or not but I wanted to let you know that my husband and I enjoy watching every adventure you have, especially now since you have Rocco. I finally subscribed! Both you and your pup are enjoying some memorable adventures and we appreciate you sharing them through Y-tube. We wish you and Rocco safe journeys.
Totally amazing. Thanks for showing us those amazing views. It’s funny that you thought you looked sloppy flailing down the last hill. The vantage point made you look professional.
yes, you are fortunate to be able to witness the incredible beauty of one of the most spectacular mountain ranges on the planet. Skiing above the clouds is the icing on the cake!
You just brought back one of my heaven on earth moments.... High Country Yosemite after a blizzard with feet of powder and crystal clear sky nordic skiing... no people around. Thank you!
You sure do look happy with your new skiing passion ❤. Some really beautiful video moments in this one ❤. Ms Rocko a super cutie as always ❤️. I received my Rocko sticker yesterday, I love it ❤️
Wow! I have always loved inversion views where the clouds become the ocean, and the mountain tops, small islands. Add to that skiing down toward that cloud inversion in 1st POV where the white powder becomes yet another inversion with the smaller tree tops just peeking through like small bushes! That was indeed special. Thanks again FF (& Rocko) for putting in the work to bring us this type of amazing content.
That drone shot above the clouds was next level 🤯
Is sure was, but could have been longer.
Foresty Forest is for sure the best van life channel on TH-cam.
First and best!
@@JonHewson825 not even a debate
@timhenderson9794 he should get a prize.
Always has been
6:23 was the best shot/framing/composition of the year. EPIC.
Thank you!
Absolutely poster worthy!
That is one of the best cloud inversions I've ever seen. Stunning.
Totally agree!
That trekking along the ridge drone shot was next level!

Cause it's only partially about vans

This TH-cam channel is easily my favorite. It has everything I love. Outdoors, adventure, FOOD, traveling and of course a Jack Russell!
My favorite too !
A sea of clouds... incredible scenery
Loving these winter views... Thanks for sharing your world with us...
Same. We had these snowy winters when I was young. Now it is too warm for those. It is grey instead of white. The video brings back fond memories.
WOW, what wonders this young man (and pup) have seen. A lifetime lived and lived well. Simon you’re amazing. 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Am I the only one that hits the like button before even watching Foresty's videos?
Uh, that's a NO. Love these videos!
I do!
Me too
Me too❤
Dude...I believe we all do...lol...lol...it's a gimmy...lol...lol...
Rocko looks so sporty in her snowsuit.❤
I lost my dog yesterday who I loved dearly, I am crushed. Hug Rocco tonight.
Sorry for your loss.
I am sorry to hear that :(
@@forestyforestThank you.
I am very sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry. Saying goodbye is never easy
We must protect Rocko at all costs.

Friday with Foresty... Yes ! Best adventure videos ever !!❤
shoutout to firewood bros for being awesome
The scenery made my heart swell. Thank you.
6:12 - 7:38 WOW! What insanely beautiful photography/videography, Forrest! Simply stunning. Thanks for sharing such grandeur with us. ❤
Thank you. I didnt even check weather forecast that day. Lottery win.
I'm loving the ski bum videos ⛷️
Charley Ager, the OG and best ski bum.
Thank you for letting so many of us live vicariously thru you to see this beautiful continent we live in!!! Awesome video as usual!!

Foresty Forest slaying some Powdery Powder. Great work.... I really like the new focus on backcountry skiing.
I feel like I’ve never seen foresty so happy. Skiing is a new passion.

When Foresty Forest cuts onions, the onions cry!
LOL 😅
of course they do, they've seen the videos of him and his chainsaw 🤣
Norristy forest?
Someone said to me last week that the world is f#@ked. I said no it’s not. Some people are not nice and do awful things, but the world is is next level beautiful- and your video supports that 100%
Thank you so much for what you do. And big love to Rocco 💜
You hit another episode out of the park! Your videography is awesome. Rocko is awesome! I share every video on social media.
Wow. All i can say is WOW. My favorite channel from the day i found it!!!
Back Country skiing is so much more difficult than resort skiing, but you make it look easy, and fun. Thanks for getting a bunch of us excited about skiing this winter! And another great video is in the books.
Thank you for answering the question I was going to ask! 4-1/2 hours hiking up...42 minutes skiing down.
Love seeing Rocko enjoying her best life ❤ Thanks for another great vid!
That was SO cute watching Rocko race along side of you. She seems to run faster than you can ski!!!!!! What a girl 😃.
You never cease to amaze me with your awesome beautiful videos. The breakfast sandwich and burger were awesome too. You motivated me to get after it. The burger and sandwich that is. Too old to ski 😂
This was truly exceptional. Thank you so much for all the wonders & beauty you have shared over the years. I sincerely appreciate it.🥰✌️
That place is huge! Thank you so much for bringing us along.
That cloud ocean with the peaks as islands was fantastic!
BEAUTIFUL!! Just incredible footage. Watching Rocko race you at the end was the best! ❤
Please wear a ski helmet, we worry about you. ❤ we love your videos and want to see many more. Safe ski 🎿 and safe adventures big hugs to Rocko 🐶
Cher's husband, Sonny Bono, hit one of those trees going downhill. Next stop, Funeral Home.
Look at Rocko GO !!!! What a treat !! Beautiful videography !!! I'm going to watch this several times to get all the goody out !! thanks Foresty !!!

Rocko ran down that trail like she was a sled dog!
Another award-worthy video.
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video. Love the silhouette of you and rocko going across the mountain.
Looks like so much fun. Rocko is a true mountaineer!
Spectacular, probably the most consistently enjoyable content on YT.

Great video. Nice tou finally figured out to drop the snow shoes behind 👍

Breathtakingly beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing.
Simply your best vlog yet. Wow! The ocean cloud around the mountains, unbelievable! 👍👍👍
